Old Friends Reuniting

Thanks to the escaped pigs incident, Li Wei Yang becaer dared to slave her around but allowing her to stay horeed to let her work at the teahouse not far froed by Zhou Jiang and Mrs Ma, selling si by the village It was a convenient way toas just a young girl and yet had to endure sothe easy task of boiling the water for the teas and didn’t force her to do anything else exhausting

Wei Yang was adding wood to the fire when Mrs Ma hurriedly rushed in She saw Wei Yang busy but urged nonetheless, “Wei Yang, hurry up a bit! We need a little bitout 10 tortilla bread We have a special guest at the teahouse”

Li Wei Yang did as she was told She walked towards the door but felt confused There were plenty of travelers and guests from the South and North, but there had never been anyone as considered a ‘special guest’ The special guest Mrs Ma mentioned, what kind of person was it? She sloalked up to the door and quietly observed the front of the house

Standing under the cover was a bunch of bodyguards dressed in blue It was hard to see the person sitting in the middle of the crowd In the middle of twenty normal horses was a rare white horse with a silver and red-striped saddle, creating an overwhels “Wei Yang! Hurry! Don’t let the guests wait too long”

For so, as if theto happen Her feet couldn’t ? Why aren’t you cohed as he apologized to the guest “That girl’s a little dense and sloill carefully discipline her later”

Then there was a voice that sounded like one of the bodyguards “No proble over the tea Myat the situation, there was no way to retreat Li Wei Yang conteo out She took half a step but abruptly froze after glancing over the person sitting in theEven that young man lifted his head and briefly looked at her

He sat in the htly like the moon but there was also an aloofness in it Those eyes were bright enough to the point it made others find it difficult to open their own eyes From afar, one could see a coldness that separated him from the rest of the world His white attire was embroidered with a doards pattern that was carefully and expertly quilted His gaze was steadfast like the stream but also frosty like the ice Those pair of eyes flickered over Li Wei Yang

Li Wei Yang shuddered She quickly lowered her head after the brief glance She held the tray up to her eyebrows and lowered her head asup her face so that person wouldn’t be able to see her She took a few more steps and handed the food over to Mrs Ma Then she covered her face, pretending to be afraid of strangers She hurriedly returned to the se space in the back of the house It was only then did she breathe a sigh of relief

Thebeside Tuo Ba Yu said to hio look for soht?”

Tuo Ba Yu didn’t look at hi had disappeared to There was a hint of huirl he had seen that day

The girl was about 12-13 years old and adorned a worn-out white attire that had been patched up in so the stove fire because her face was stained by so’s hands were fair but also very skinny, barely anyand messy, which was haphazardly tied up on top of her head Despite her intentions to hide her face, her big black eyes still shi+ne with a strange, inexplainable feeling That petite figure provoked a sense of protection,one want to protect her, to take care of her

Shaking his head, Tuo Ba Yu thought he was being weird He couldn’t believe he would harbor such a ridiculous, unrealistic thought Re how she had deceived the others previously, airl was very interesting!

As he replayed the scene in his head, he casually said, “No, ill speed up and rest at the small town up ahead We have to set out early tomorrow and return to the Capital on tiuts to say otherwise He knew Seventh Prince’s personality too well When he tells you to do so then that otiable tone of voice

Very quickly, the crowd had finished their teas, got up on their horses, went past the village but didn’t stop as they raced forward, heading towards the North
